found out today that the monitor that i've deemed 'the best thing ever' has been displaying footage of my baby sleeping on the same brand monitor in my next door neighbor's home. it's very unsettling. (you know, when she told me this, i was instantly wracking my brain to think if i had ever done anything that could implicate me in some way while that monitor was on. i'm glad i decided to do a tight zoom on ozzy's head and not a larger pan of the room. the room where i walk around in my granny panties that i need to wear because of my c-section scar. the room where i often get national geographic for breastfeeding reasons. those are images no one should ever have to see lest their eyes burn out of their skulls. images that would require hundreds of dollars worth of therapy and even after all that, nothing would ever be right with the world ever again. ever. you do not want to go there. i dont know which circle of hell that would be for you.)
this year was a particularly difficult year to plan mimi's birthday. after rob's dad became terminally ill, i didnt think it was good time for a party for mimi and her friends, so we decided it was best to skip a party this year and just have a quiet family dinner out. then after dad passed and we slowly started to get back into our routines again, we all began to feel bad about not having a party for mimi, so we decided to have a party after all...although, a much belated party. mimi said she really wanted to have a party here at the house. she really really really wanted it here, so i told her she could, if she kept it small. since she was turning seven, i allowed her to invite seven friends. then i tasked her with thinking up a theme, and she finally settled on a favorite book series of hers called Rainbow Magic . how perfect...each of the book sets in the series showcases 7 fairies, whether they be the rainbow fairies, the gem fairies, the party fai...
what? so you are getting pictures of your neighbor's baby and not ozzy??
